Main ship build for SLF pilot?

What’s the best pvp and pve “main” ship build for an Elite SLF pilot to fly? As in, the SLF pilot is flying the mothership, the player is flying the fighter. I started doing this because the big ships feel slow and it’s good to have a change of pace by jumping into a fighter and zipping around, but the slf crew have a different style when they fly the mothership that probably needs its own special build.

Back in the day, slf pilots were amazing with fixed weapons and dumbfire missiles in particular. They were bad at heat and pip management and would sometimes disable modules and weapons, so you’d have to swap back in sometimes.

I’m thinking cutter, corvette or krait, and fixed weapons, maybe rails and PAs, with a cold build and maybe advanced missile racks.
 
I'm doing it in the Cutter. Turreted multicannons, turetted and gimballed beam lasers. Fast and very well shielded (like most of the Cutters out there). I have two hangars installed, GU-97 and the Trident always with me. Switching between them depending on what I'm feeling like. Cutter is very resilient and even rookie NPC pilot doing OK in it most of the time. LOL
